The driver stared at Kyung-Soo with squinted eyes and moved towards him to take a better look at him. Nivritti looked at Kyung-Soo with fear not knowing what to do or how to help him. As usual, Kyung-Soo jumped behind Nivritti and tried to hide his tall stature behind her.
Nivritti flusteredly looked at the driver. He too was confused as to why a man that tall was trying to hide behind such a tiny girl. She kept bringing her hand near her forehead and taking it away at the last moment. But she could not control it further and facepalmed, hard.
"What do you think you are doing?" she muttered to Kyung-Soo in English hoping that the driver won't understand what they were talking about. "Get in front!"
"Ahjussi! Please wait here for five minutes. I will get your money," she again pleaded with the driver and started moving away from him.
But the driver was not having any of it. He immediately grabbed her hand and stopped her. "You thief!" the driver shouted.
